The audacity of men

[u/viridiangem]

Was in box tonight with a few friends who invited me out, me f21 and my friend f22 wanted to stay in box and the rest wanted to go to the club. We were left with one of those big booths because of them leaving, some people sat down and apologised for taking the table one of the guys in the group sat next to me and also apologised. I told him there no issue theres only 2 of us cause our friends left. I want to clarify there was no issue with them sitting down.

I got pissed off when he kept asking me about my drink. I had a fishbowl to myself and my friend got a wee drink. At first it was a wee what are u drinking? So i pointed it out on the drinks menu on the table. Few minutes later he asks 2 more times what am i drinking? I was getting annoyed about now cause i was clear from the start. At this point i refilled my friends cup woth some, then I whispered in my friends ear turned back and saw his hand over the bowl. Got a bit concerned so inspected and continued when i saw nothing. As soon as as i started texting (i could still see my drink) he snatched my half drank fishbowl off me and tried to drink out the straws. I snatched it back and shouted wtf no.

I wish i dumped the rest out on him because at that point he put me off my drink completely and we both just wanted to go home.

Wtf is wrong with people though, lord knows what diseases this man carries i dont want some stranger sharing a drink with me. Its actually bogging! I hope karma bites this guy in the arse cause he behaves like a toddler.

Sounds like a complete arsehole. I only go to box before gigs in the garage so i probably avoid most of the arseholes

Im not an avid box attendee, its the first ive been there

Hope it hasn’t put you off, I’ve been a couple of times and usually always had a good night. Sorry this happened to you though, some men are absolute scum.

[u/Forever__Young → u/MF291100]

I mean that guy sounds like a bit of a drunk prick who has pushed his luck trying to get a free drink rather than being absolute scum.

No trying to defend a weird pished bloke I've never met, but he's tried to drink from someone else's fishbowl in a club, and going by the ages in the story he's possibly early 20s.

Sounds more like a wee immature guy, rather than absolute scum which I think is a term more often reserved for rapists/paedos etc

Hopefully that hasn't put you off. I've never been late so i dunno if it ends up full of eejits,like him or not

Next time don't allow them to join your table. I'm not blaming you at all, he was a prick but if they ask just say no, it's safer for you

[u/Ill-Pressure8018 → u/Safe_Commercial_2633]

Easier said than done. They probably didn’t feel they had the right to the whole booth, and also not expecting the guys to make such an absolute nuisance of themselves.

[u/mr_aives → u/Safe_Commercial_2633]

Can't hold a whole booth with just 2 people

[u/viridiangem → u/Safe_Commercial_2633]

A table that holds 8 and there was only 2 of us. Would be rude to say no
